Misshapen, yellowed cucumbers will be a thing of the past when you use this space-saving trellis to support plants in your garden. The sturdy, powder-coated steel frame supports heavy loads and has big 4" grids for easy harvesting. Lean-to design gives you room to sow salad greens under the trellis for an extra crop before your cukes mature. Large Cucumber Trellis is 48" square and fits in a 4' raised bed.

I saw this on the website and decided to try it, since we have lots of blooms on cukes, but not many cukecumbers to harvest. We put this in the garden a week after planting the cukes in a row. Oh, gosh, they took off, are at the top now, and going over the edge! Bet there are a hundred or more little cukecumbers that I cam see, hanging down just like in the pictures. It keeps the plants up off the ground, bugs don't seem to bother like they do on the ground, no blight so far, everything is really healthy looking. I wish it was taller, because I don't know what to do with all the vines sticking over the top!!

I love that the cucumber vines just gravitate to the trellis and the cucumbers dangle from underneath making it easy to pick them under the trellis. If you do not have a very deep garden dug, you will have trouble getting the legs to go down deeper getting the trellis to slant further to get better sun, so you will have to dig a lot more. Overall it was easy to put together and the cucumbers are so easy to deal with on this trellis versus vertical cages. I will most likely purchase another for next year.

I think the trellis will work well now that I have it set up. It didn't slip together as per the instructions. I had to force it quite a bit and then use tie wraps to make sure it stayed together. It's ok now though and I'm happy to have it.

I'm passionate about pickles. That's why caring for my cucumber crop tops my list of garden chores. And to me, there is nothing worse than a soggy, limp, crunch-less pickle. My biggest goal is to make sure they stay crisp!
